Siddhartha Gautama is referenced by a number of different titles, but mostly as Buddha. Sometimes he is referred to as Sakyamuni Buddha where Sakyamuni (Sage of the Sakyas) is a refernce to the tribe he was born into (Sakya) or at times he is called Gautama Buddha, as you indicated, where Gautama is his family name. Both of these are used when referring to the actual historical person of Siddhartha Gautama as opposed to another enlighten person who has attained Buddhahood (who would be called a Buddha also).

Even the Dharma duelling used in Zen Buddhism where scholars debate points of Buddhist philosophy was not yet developed. When he was still Prince Siddhartha Gautama he may have engaged in competitions and may well have won many of them, but in societies where princes exist nobody defeats them often - just as a matter of courtesy.
